Through
DePaul's School for New Learning, these students can take courses in
the classroom or online. They also can take time off, even abruptly,
when the symptoms of their illnesses hit, and finish coursework later
with no penalty or tuition loss.

Meet The Blogger

Alexander Russo

I grew up near Roscoe &amp; Halsted in the 1970s, left for college and moved back in 2000, started this blog in 2005 (first on my own, then with Catalyst, and now with ChicagoNow). My dad went to Senn. I went to Near North Montessori and Parker. Since 2006 I've been living in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn -- the Wicker Park of New York City. I have another education blog called This Week In Education that focuses on school reform trends at the national level.
